Hi de Hi!
Well today was full of dramas! we woke up to find Radhika couldn’t move, which was worrying!! so she had to go to hospital with Jamie where they did an X-ray and found out that she had a fractured tail bone!! dun dun dunnn! Thats the last time she tries to climb over a rope! But we all miss her and it has’t been the same without her today, although she does get to stay in a hotel tonight so we’re all a tiny bit jealous of that hehe. Anyway, today we left the wahiba sands camp which was sad because it was such a nice place to stay and it was so cool just waking up to the red sand and blue skies! Our first stop was for lunch which was yummy..chicken and chips! hehe and there was an amazing view across oman to add to that! Then we went to a place called Masifa which is a little village that took over 900 years to build, it was so peaceful there and the scenery was really beautiful so we spent a couple of hours sketching! After that we started our journey back to our base house in Muscat where everyone fell asleep..until our Car tyre exploded! it wasnt just a small puncture it was a masive rip..argh!But we all survived! Then we got to pizza hut yummmyyyy! everyone was awake then! After that we arrived back home and had to say goodbye to our drivers which was sad becuase they were all soo funny and friendly and we miss them already!! Anyway best stop rambling!! byeeee x

Crikey, we all hope Radhika will be okay! It sounds like you’re all a bit sad leaving the desert. We’re not surprised. From what you’ve shown us so far it’s one beautiful place. Anyway, the sand from the builder’s yard arrived this afternoon, along with big delivery of chicken, rice… and chips so you’ll feel at home when you get back. Not much we can do about the weather! Hope you have no more mishaps. Love to all. Dad and the crew xxxxxxxx

Phewee! What a day - hope Radhika is ok and is able to join you all again for the rest of the trip. Glad you all survived the ‘burst tyre incident’ too! Sounds like you’ve made a load of really good friends - on the party, and in Oman and Dubai and I guess when you’re sharing such incredible experiences, it’s not surprising that you’ll all feel sad when you have to say good bye to someone (like your drivers), as you’ll have all built up such a special bond. I’d love to go to Masifa - it sounds really interesting - hope you’ve got some great photos of it! Keep on bloggin - love you loadsXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXX

Hi Lucy
Everything has been so interesting to follow, only one thing wrong was that we couldn’t be with you to enjoy it!!! What a shame about Radhika, hope she is feeling better. Bit scary with the burst tyre - never a dull moment. The scenery of the desert and villages were so interesting - we can understand you will be sorry having to leave it behind you. The artwork is all brilliant - aren’t you all cleverclogs!!! Make the most of your chicken and chips- sounds as if you are enjoying them. Carry on enjoying your adventure. Lots of Love M. and J.
